The intention is to introduce you to the people who have been carving their own path...with no care for what anybody thinks.

We try not to post things that are still for sale but sometimes post things that are not easily available. If you like what you hear, then find these people and tell them how great they are.

Better still, tell them and then seek out their new releases and buy them. We add links, when they are reliable and active, so that you can keep track if you so wish.

Always go straight to the artist or the label where possible. That way, the money goes straight to the people responsible for this art. These people rely on our support to keep going and make more quality releases!

Please feel free to leave comments as you go along...at least then we know you appreciate this stuff (or otherwise) and you're not just a bunch of freeloading file collectors.

If you made this music and we have pissed you off by posting any of this, please leave a comment in the post and the offending articles will be removed.

Pretty damn awesome debut LP by a sorely underrated band from Swindon, the same English city that was home to XTC. Perennial Divide (look that up) had some sonic sympathy with other post-punk/industrial bands from the mid-80s, like The Box, Hula, the Pop Group and Clock DVA; aggressive dub cut-ups and desperate yelping vocals over a bed of noise. Released on Sweatbox in 1986. It was reissued on CD in 2007 in a far inferior version that had the vocals removed. The singer, John Corrigan, would later make a goofy record under the name Meat Beat Manifesto, which became so successful that it eclipsed his other band and continues to this day.
